Fidel Castro Resigns...

...and good riddance. The murderous dictator, famous for shooting people trying to escape to the US down in the Gulf of Mexico for shark food, has finally resigned and handed over full power to his brother Raul. Although Raul is no better, let's hope that Cubans will finally start talking out about the third-world conditions they have been suffering for 50 years, and the communist regime there will come to a peaceful end.

In other news, Kosovo has finally declared independence from Serbia. Especially with the Russians ardently against Kosovo's independence, let's see how long this lasts.
